Participants

Reaction Steps

To a solution of spiro[furo[2,3-f][1,3]benzodioxole-7,3′-indol]-2′(1′H)-one (0.16 g, 0.57 mmol) in ethylmethylketone (5.00 mL) was added Cs2CO3 (0.40 g, 1.20 mmol). The reaction mixture was stirred at ambient temperature for 15 min followed by the addition of 4-fluorobenzyl bromide (0.20 g, 1.0 mmol). The reaction mixture was refluxed for 4 h. After the completion of the reaction, the mixture was filtered and the solvent was removed under reduced pressure. The residue was recrystallized from EtOAc/Hexane to yield the title compound (0.111 g) as a white solid in 50% yield: MS (ES+) m/z 390.3 (M+1).
